not good at it. [ laughter ] penn state university was rated the best party school of 2009 by "the princeton review." and, once again, the award for worst party school went to north korea tech. [ laughter ] coming in second once again, the amish school of plow repair. that was -- "jebediah, would you care to join me in a game of buttermilk pong?" [ laughter ] and finally, president obama's domestic agenda has been hammered by everything from blue dog democrats to birthers. and now some polls suggest the public is losing faith in him. you know, i was going to make a joke about these poll numbers, but this story doesn't need a joke. it needs something else. >> black thought: jimmy, are you suggesting that we slow jam this news? >> jimmy: yeah, that's exactly what i'm suggesting. let us slow jam the news. [ cheers and applause ] ♪ ♪ ah, yeah >> jimmy: you know, they say a picture is worth a thousand words, but my mama always told me a statistical picture is worth at least a thousand analytical interpretations ♪ analytical interpretations oh, yeah oh, yeah oh, yeah ♪ >> jimmy: one poll i

the problem, as i was talking to my good friend, gene mccall, the princeton physicist and just retired as the chief scientist in the air force, he says they don't really know accurately how farther away and the biggest problem would be if they decided to move the station they might move it in the wrong direction. >> jay, i don't want to tempt fate here but what if it does hit? how well protected is the space station against this kind of attack, if you like, from debris? >> it all depends on whether or not it is a glancing blow if it is cross-orbit, they are travel agent 17,300 miles an hour this should be kind of glancing across, traveling the same way. part of the station off do no great damage if is a head-on commission. >> if they have a margin of error of seven miles, does seem likely they will be able to avoid that a lot of space junk out there people should clean up after themselves, jay. >> 190,000 pieces out there. >> jay, thank you. >> thank you. >>> still ahead, women taking over after decades of being outnumbered in the workplace. finally, we are out to kick some -- >> prove

there isn't any reduction to engineering mathematics and physics and taught at princeton. these types of courses are becoming more prevalent. we have a minor in music engineering which is a partnership with mathematics, mechanical, computer, electrical engineering. it is expanding -- expanding. a lot of cross fertilization. and the university seminar has stepped up to provide courses across the campus. one professor from various fields come together. those are the kinds of interesting courses that are appearing on our campus. these dishes are driving this not just the faculty. i am not worried about killing their enthusiasm once they get to the college level. i think there is a lot going on in students are going to demand this. i would like to get my thoughts on where we go from here. engineering education has not been thought of as an area of scholarship. that is starting to change. i think it has to continue to change. the first frontiers of engineering education will occur at a symposium earlier this year. we have to make the career paths attractive to individuals. i th
